WOPI - Opening Excel document in view mode does not trigger business flow validation #373

Closed boagorudolph closed 6 years ago

boagorudolph commented 6 years ago

I have a WOPI service which returns in its CheckfileInfo all required properties for indicating that the user is a business user.

The BUSINESS_USER value is also properly set to true in both the edit and view actions. For edit action, the edit capabilities are properly validated by redirecting user to a signing page to validate their commercial Office 365 subscription.

The argument that my colleagues have is that the same should happen for view action. However WOPI documentation does not indicate this.

Is view action suppose to trigger business user validation flow?

The license check currently only applies to document editing. However, you must still identify users as business users regardless of the mode you use; the apps will determine whether a license check is needed.
